Efforts are canvassing events that you hold on a particular day. Within the Organizer Canvassing tool, Efforts also contain your daily assignments or Turfs, the Survey you will use that day, and the Results. Before you create a site visit Effort, you need to Add Users and Assign Roles, Prepare Your Data File, Create an Import, Create a List, and Create a Survey.
